Just curious to know if anyone has noticed an increase in MS bot visits as a result of the feedback option on the techpreview? Based on how aggressively MS has been spidering sites lately, I wonder if MS are spidering "new" submisions with as much vigor.

Yes, Msnbot is still hard at it - pages seem to be added to the index quickly too.
However, cant seem to find a single domain with much more than 100 pages doing a site:www.domain.com check (assuming this is the right way) - not even a site like Amazon.
So I dont know where all the crawl data is going.

Getting 5-10 visits per day listed as "msnbot/0" Actually have been visited by msnbot for quite some time. Not sure what it does: MSN Search still does not recognize a lot of my meta-tag keywords.
